Oh, and AFM, my elliptical will be delivered/setup tomorrow! Super excited about that! O is right around the corner for me, should be in 3-4 days, so we're gearing up for our BD fest. Super-de-duperty hoping that we'll catch an egg this month, but DH will be deploying from May through September, so that means he'd miss most of the pregnancy (but very fortunately will be back well before the due date). What I really want, is to just be pg BEFORE he leaves, then I don't have to take those 4 months off.

Leslie- they will take our taxes until we pay the difference. We did try to set up a payment plan, but all they would accept was 400+ a month, which I don't even have if I wanted to pay that much a month!!
I just wish they would leave us like 1/5 of the refund, ya know

Ugh, that stinks. How many years do you think it'll take to get it all repaid?

It will probably take up to 7 yrs, we ended up owing 28000 on the house, I think it is down to 22000. They won't allow us to make payments that we can afford on it, it is either all of it, $400+ a month or our taxes, which really sucks.
Just went to get groceries and DH was so sweet. I have had little to no appetite lately. If you put food in front of me, I will eat some, but not a ton and have no interest in figuring food out. Well pizza sounded really good, so he took me to the pizza parlor and bought me a slice of pizza, so gonna eat that with crushed red pepper flakes and ranch dressing YUMMMM

Kews- why don't you start a savings putting whatever monthly payment you are comfortable making and come tax refund time that will be yours! Yummy pizza.
Leslie- Hopefully this month has your name on it in God's planner!
Nancy- Has anyone ever told you that you resemble the girl on BBC, wa mom of 4? For a while I thought ya'l were the same person based on profile pics.
Mandy- Looks like your out and about in the snow today. Precious pic of you and boys! Looks like we are going to be cycle buddies! So since you do all the charting work and i'm not...can you just tell me when we should be bd'ing!?! LOL
Tiff- I'm sorry to hear you business is closing. So now what? Do you have something else in the works or are you going to take some time off? Maybe you can continue toffee on a part time basis??? That's such a cool concept!
So this morning has been interesting with my LO's. I have a 2 yr old biter on my hands. He got ahold of 2 of the kids. I guess with my own I lightly bit back and never had that problem again! But with my 9-5'ers, although I treat them like my own, that part is not as easy. I would nver consider biting him back since he is not mine. Input on how to stop a biter?
( I do refer to my kids that I watch as my 9-5'ers , so no one is confused ;-))

UGH about the biting! My oldest never did, but my little one did when he was 2. It shocked me! He only bit his brother a few times then stopped. I was so worried! It is so hard to explain to them that biting is wrong. How they come up with it is CRAZY! What gets it in their heads where they are like Hey I will just bit this kid and get my way!
I will let you know when I am Oing. I dont chart, I just take a thousand OPKs a month. Not really but I know about the time when I will O so I do an OPK that day and the few days following. I will let you know.

Sporty - that's awesome about your daughter! Oh and the cake....ugg. WA mom of 4 is Tara - they kinda do look a little alike. I'm not sure what I will do now that I'm closing Toffee by Tiffani. I do need to finish college, but our money right now is being saved for this baby making. Having a baby is our #1 priority right now, so saving money in case we need it is the smart thing to do. Thanks god for the business tho, we had tons of write-offs and get money back this year. We had to pay last year. Like I said on FB, I may join the circus:-)
Leslie - Get to BD'ing girl! Why are you on the laptop?? LOLPooey on DH leaving in May. You'll be pg by then, I know it!
Mandy - I started temping again. I can't handle it, I have to know where my temp is. I gave it up for about a week, I needed to start again.
Kirsten - I hope and pray that you get some answers about all of your health issues. I can't imagine having to deal with all of that on top of TTC. TTC is enough stress for me altogether. Those Dr.'s need to get on it and figure it out.
Nancy - good to see here over here popping in:-) I know you've been working alot.
ME - CD 31 and 13 DPO for me. Another BFN this afternoon. No AF yet. I'm thinking I "O"'ed later than I thought (damn FF) and that is why my temps never went up. I'm going to just have sex everyday of the month. LOL How can you not catch an egg that way, right?? I wish AF would just start and get it over with.

Tiff, thats what we did both times to get our boys! EVERY DAY! My husband was like 'I am tapped out!'
Jenn, good to see you back. Our schools are closed today. This is day 4! I dont have any in school yet, just pre-school and his was canceled too. It snowed a lot last night. It's melting now though, finally we can see the streets!

Aw Tiff, I'm so sorry about the BFN. I totally think that you'd catch that egg BDing every day....I'll have to leave that plan to you though. I'm not sure either myself or my DH would survive. lol

Leslie - It was hard, but my DH was in SEX heaven. He loved it and he's excited to get back to it. When does your marathon start?
